How are you doing? When I read that last post I wondered how the conversation about you not knowing how to be H's friend came about. Did he initiate it? If he didn't, naughty you! No R talk, remember!!
On the plus side, it's interesting that he's lonely. I don't think it's bad to want him to be more lonely and miss you, but I do thin it indicates that he's unhappy within himself. He obviously has some stuff to deal with. If you can be there as a friend for him, with no pressure and be a rock for him that might help a lot......
